It took me too long to understand that this is just a TUI library for Go

Thank you, I was excited for new drinks and flavors and this saved me the read.

I thought there had been a major breakthrough in tapioca-tech

Thank you. I kept looking at the page trying to figure out WTF it even was, and was unsuccessful. Damn, I wish I had a cane so I could shake it at these devs.

>Real AI is more brilliant than whatever algorithm you could ever think of

So with "Real AI" you actually mean artificial superintelligence.


I wrote what I meant & meant what I wrote. You can take up your argument w/ the people who think they're working on AI by adding more data centers & more matrix multiplications to function graphs if you want to argue about marketing terms.

I was just thinking that calling artificial superintelligence "Real AI" was funny.

They’re looking for AI that’s só good it’s unreal

Corporate marketing is very effective. I don't have as many dollars to spend on convincing people that AI is when they give me as much data as possible & the more data they give me the more "super" it gets.

This pelican is actually bad, did you use xhigh?

yep, just double checked used gpt-5.4 xhigh. Though had to select it in codex as don't have access to it on the chatgpt app or web version yet. It's possible that whatever code harness codex uses, messed with it.

this is proof they are not benchmaxxing the pelican's :-)

>That isn't to suggest that this editor doesn't/won't exist, that the editor uses LLM-generated code (which is not a sleight) or that the claims are not truthful.

If you look at the icons of the tools in the image they appear to have been generated using a LLM. So yeah it's probably vibecoded a lot, it would be cool if the author reports how much and how it was used but I don't think newgrounds would like it much.


I'm not the parent comment but if you look at the images they posted you can see that the icons of the tools seems very likely to have been generated by a LLM (the SVGs).

> the icons of the tools seems very likely to have been generated by a LLM

They just look like bad rushed placeholder icons. And why does that immediately scream vibe-coded?


Humans tend to use free icon collections or search the web for suitable images, rather than hand-writing SVG markup.

Why even consider hand-written SVG when drawing tools like Inkscape exist?

Sure, there are occasions to write markup from scratch, but vanishingly few in my experience.


They have the same same inconsistencies and incoherencies that I have encounter with LLMs creating SVG. Very different from what a human would have created (and I don't think you have to train your eyes to see it).

if you truly can't clock that this is AI written, you probably need to desperately develop this skill as soon as possible, because everything outside of the first sentence is so very, very clearly slop.

There are few types of people more annoying and less successful at changing anyone’s mind than those who are condescending while failing to understand the point being made.

Developing the skill to recognise when you’re being one is paramount to having fruitful conversations.

Unless, of course, one just cares about sounding right, not actually understanding the conversation and reaching a truthful conclusion.


Browsers usually have an accessibility option to force the ability to zoom on all websites.

This website has those features disabled in Chrome or Brave. Apparently the Zoom option will only appear for "sites that support this feature". This is because they set this header in the meta tags:

    user-scalable=0

Phase one of the self-replicating machine (/s or not I don't know anymore).

Truer words have never been said!

It is not easy understanding the current times in a /s way (or not)


The 6 blobs of colors look very weird after testing a few images, I feel like ThumbHash is much more natural and the downsides are minimal compare to SplatHash.

In what fantasy world?

A world where I can prompt my local ASI to put a stop to it.

You can still buy a Polaroid, there is one factory left in the world able to produce the film required but they still make them.

“Still” isn’t the right word. Once Polaroid stopped making the film, closed their factories, and sold or junked their machines, their supplies did the same, and so some of the components stopped being manufactured and available for purchase. What’s sold now as Polaroid film was a reinvention of the same idea. And it’s notably not as good. The dwindling stock of unused true Polaroid film is getting absurdly expensive as a result.

The one factory you refer to was the last one, and was purchased by the Impossible Project (now Polaroid BV). So they were able to save one set of machines. But the actual process of making the film was lost. So it’s an old set of machines making a new but similar product.


Yeah I know but it's still incredible that we have something like that in 2026 being produced.

Agreed! The whole film world is on fire right now, it’s pretty cool to see.

> The dwindling stock of unused true Polaroid film is getting absurdly expensive as a result. what's the point? ain't all of this stock expired, with photos ending up just blobs or being gamble at best? (even for film stored in freezers)

It’s always a gamble, but no, lots of it is still good. There are many photographers still working with it. Jean-Andre Antoine [1] is one of the more famous; if you’re ever in NY, go see him in SoHo, he’s a super nice guy and a fantastic photographer. And he uses a Speed Graphic!
